Evernote is another app that is effective in the classroom. Evernote is a note taking app that stores everything in “the cloud.” The best part? It syncs notes to every device where the app installed on. Evernote can be used to make audio recording, photos, text notes, or all three. Another great thing Evernote does is it allows the saving clips from the Internet.
There are so many ways to use Evernote in the classroom. The greatest thing about Evernote is how quick and easy it is to capture an observation and store it for later use. Somethings a teacher may use this app for could be to record observations during class, notes from parent-teacher conferences, test results, and so much more. It is a great paperless system that automatically backs up all notes. It can be connected to any device which allows a teacher to work on any device, and still have his or her notes. Teachers can also take photos of students' work and then annotate the picture. It also allows the teacher to tag the note with the student's name so later they can tell whose paper it was. Another great way to use this app is by recording. The teacher can create a note and record the students or even a class lesson.
Along with all the ways Evernote can be used in a classroom, there are advantages to using Evernote. For example, the teacher can create a check list with tick boxes. This allows a teacher to create a check list of students who have completed the activity or even to check homework. Another advantage to Evernote is it allows a teacher to keep a running record. The teacher can go back and reflect on everything she has stored about the student. By being able to record the student it also allows the teacher to play back what the student has said. By doing this students can reflect, and realize what they have done, or what they need to work on. Another advantage of Evernote is teachers can easily display students work. Since as soon as something is recorded it syncs to a laptop, it allows the teacher to share things with the class automatically. Another great advantage is Evernote has an automatic text detection. This means that even if a piece of work is added without a tag, Evernote will detect a name, and add it to that student’s page. Evernote can also be used for personal notes. If a teacher attends a conferences or faculty meeting he or she would be able to take notes on Evernot and save it to their own personal folder. Evernote also allows the user to save anything. such as, business cards, recipes, code snippets, whiteboard notes, and even iOS or Android themes.
Just like any other app, it is not for everyone. It all depends on the work one does and how her or she wants to organize your information. Evernote is an easy app to use once you get the hang of it, but it can be a challenge at the beginning.

3) Possible uses in the classroom including grade level relevancy, evaluation of the ease and probability of use
Evernote is a great tool for the classroom. Teachers can record students while they are reading, take pictures of students' work, take notes throughout the lesson, and even share student's work easily with the rest of the class. For teachers this is a great way to take notes and review work later on in the day and students do not have access to it.
4) Possible uses with diverse learners
This a tool for teachers not students so making it useful for diverse learners can be tricky. In the end, there are way that teachers can use this for their diverse learners. For example, if students are on the lower end of the scale for reading skills, teachers can record that student and listen to it again later. This allows them to develop other ways to help that student. The teacher can even play back the recording to his or her students. It also allows the teacher to take pictures of students' work and share it with the class. If the teacher has a student who is creative, the student can take pictures of their project and show it to class so others can get an idea of what they want to do. The teacher can also take notes on how the students are doing during class and make changes or plans for different skill levels later on.
